Eye-Tailed Horror

Two travelers set out on a journey. During their travels they encountered an odd forest. Enticed with curiosity they decided to take a detour.

Little did the adventurers know this decision could lead to not only the end of their expedition, but the end of their lives as well.

What the pair encountered was unlike any beast they had seen before. It was more like something out of a horror story.

This beast's massive tail was blessed with the power of vision.

Ensnaring and devouring it's prey is a simple task, for it can easily watch the surrounding environment for threats.

Armed with sturdy spears and steel armor, the travelers might have a chance.

Cursed Soldier

Infested with the blood of the ancients, this hollow soldier is cursed to walk this land with a corrupt body and mind.

Tendrils seep from appendages and crawl their way through steel and leather. Free will has been forever lost for this once noble warrior.

Manticore

The manticore is a hulking beast, its large body consisting almost entirely of heavy, corded muscles covered with thick, coarse hair.

Sporadic armour-like plating protects its shoulders and back, and its barbed tail is perfectly positioned, poised to strike.

Capable of standing upright on two legs, the manticore may also choose to drop to all four when chasing prey, allowing for some truly startling bursts of speed.

Once caught the manticore uses its scorpion-like tail to inject a fast-acting paralytic into the body of its prey. Using it's small but razor-sharp mouth and teeth It will then proceed, over the course of hours, to tear small chunks of flesh away from the body, slowly and surely devouring its still living prey.

If faced with this creature, consider a quick death at your own hand; few fates are worse than the manticore's slow, agonising consumption.

Nymph

The Nymph dwells in muddy lakes, slow rivers, and in the sprawling depths of the marshlands. It is gelatinous and semi-transparent in nature, with a thin bone structure that somehow manages to hide truly horrifying strength.

This water nymph will lie motionless in wait, before surging up from the black waters to grip its prey in many long-fingered hands, and drag it struggling beneath the surface.

The Nymph enjoys ingesting prey whole during the last moments of suffocation, when its meal is still alive and twitching. Best to avoid the water at all times, just to be safe...

Drak'On

Adorned with intimidating horns, sharp claws, and massive wings, the Drak'On is something even the most heroic of warriors will have a challenge against.

Large scales on the front of the face obstruct it's vision, but not it's hunting abilities. With the ability to discover and stalk it's prey and enemies with sound alone, making a sound around the Drak'On is not advised.

Banshee

The Banshee is a haunting creature, both present and not; flickering in and out of existence with

the passing of the mists it haunts. It is a miserable thing, a dead thing; ancient skin withered and dry, crisp against the bones that creak within their sockets.

What may once have been human is now little more than a screaming shadow, its gaping maw home to nothing but the shrieks and wails of its former victims. Many foolish heroes have been drawn from their fires by the tortured cries of men, women, and children dying, only to find that their voice joins thehaunting chorus cradled loosely within this creature's ephemeral belly.

In these trying times the Banshee is valuable only for the lesson that it teaches; abandon all hope for those lost to you, and never venture out to save those who call for aid; there is no saviour that walks among man or beast mighty enough to bring them back whence they have travelled.

The Old Ones

Old Ones were born eons before there were any men, and who came to our infant world out of the cosmos.

Their knowledge and power is immeasurable, some people deny their existence, while others worship them.

Fungal Horrors

These creatures are born from ancient fungus and spores.

No one knows how long these fungal horrors have been growing and becoming ever more sentient.

But one thing is certain, you don't want to adventure into their part of the forest at night.

Clockwork Knight

Constructed to be deadly guards, the Clockwork Knight has multiple arms and superb combat skills.

Feeling no pain or fear, these mechanical soldiers offer invaluable protection to royalty.

Apparition

The Apparition is a dark creature, its form wavering and incorporeal. The night itself seems to cling to its body, its mere presence draping the land around it with shadows; an effect which only serves only to highlight the molten core within its chest.

Huge and intimidating, the shade towers above man, its long limbs shifting and changing with its form. No matter its incarnatio, this creature is always equipped with long, razor-sharp claws, which it uses to rake and cut at anything within its grasp.

No regular weapon can kill this creature; many men have fallen trying to pierce its heart, only to learn that it has no flesh to be cut. Should you see one of these beasts haunting the moors, run, for the trusty weapon at your side is naught but a useless burden.

Basilisk

The Basilisk is king of serpents; born of a snake egg hatched beneath a cockerel, this mammothbeast moves with surprising grace, its weight held steady by the powerful, many-taloned legs inherited from its sire.

This creature's underbelly is armoured with impenetrable snake-like scales, and the ridges of its back hidden beneath thick layers of umber feathers. Strategically placed spines adorn its whip-like tail, each point dripping with deadly venom, and it's many sharp-beaked heads seethe atop serpentine necks.

Despite its protections the Basilisk need not fear attack; the poison that seeps from its very skin is powerful enoughto kill any creature unlucky enough to encounter it, and its watchful heads house eyes that bleed death into thevery hearts of those who meet its gaze.

So toxic is this king of snakes that around it all life seems to perish; green hillsides turning burnt and brown beneath the noxious weight of its presence.

Should you hear the Basilisk's cry, leave all that you know and love behind and flee, for no living thing may stand before this dreadful creature's might.

Dryad

This wood nymph, commonly referred to as a Dryad guards over the forest.

It's body is composed entirely of bark and wood. Firmly rooted into the earth, this creature is quite sturdy. Decorated with sharp horns forming a crown and orange glowing eyes, the Dryad is often feared when encountered in the forest.

The Darkness

Mother of the Cosmos

This Old One created all life in the Heavens.

It's power is so grand, the magnitude is incomprehensible to most beings on Earth.

Constructed of a series of bark-like veins, this creature's physical form remains a mystery.

Bog Lurker

This massive crustacean resides in the depths of bogs and swamps. Overgrown with foliage and a rough stone shell, this creature can be hard to spot, despite it's massive size.

It waits for the perfect moment to strike it's prey.

Scavenger Beast

This creature roams the intense heat of the desert to scavenge off the decayed leftovers of other animals.

It's body appears to be covered in hair, but it is actually lined with razor sharp spines. These spines allow it to not worry from attacks from behind while feeding or sleeping.

Burrowing Infestation

It erupts from it's victims in a violent manner.

A unique poison solidifies and harden's the hosts skin and vital organs overtime, eventually leading to the insect erupting out when it has used up all available nutrients.

This results in a cracked and hardened leftover carcass which is not suitable for scavenging by other creatures.

Swarm

A massive swarm of armored insects. While they may be weak, they are swift and hard to hit with swords or arrows.

These winged bugs have an affinity for destroying anything in their path.
